Im guessing this is probably quite smple and probably covered but like I said I am a n00b to this and probably just not understanding.


btw, thanks for the great tutorial. got my server up very easily.

hi all! I have a little problem. have installed server about year from this manual. worked great, but since june after some of updates, it disappeared from server list, found this article, but still no solution, but before it is worked.

people can join to the server directly from command connect your ip adress, or from favorits, when they viewing server from friends, they recieve the message: the server is not responding. The server and a client on different machines

any help please?

P.S. Sorry for my bad english

Google says it's due to missing 32bit libraries on a 64bit OS and you have to type this to fix it:

apt-get install ia32-libs

What distro are you using?

If you are using CentOS ( Redhat Distro ) you might need to run

ln -s /bin/gunzip /bin/uncompress

As root
